I was trying almost everything, fdisk, sysinstall and boot0cfg (don't trying dd). fdisk & sysinstall not works until kern.geom.debugflags=16. boot0cfg not works until I put freebsd bootloader inplace, it can't set active partition flag with other loaders. Even DOS utilities can. -- http://ache.pp.ru/
